Outside the Treasure Pavilion courtyard, Ye Feng looked at the vermilion door solemnly, hesitating whether to enter it.
The identity of the white-bearded old man was beyond his expectation, and his cultivation was so advanced that he could not imagine. He was afraid that he had already reached the legendary Gangwu realm.
"Why are you still standing outside? Are you afraid that I will eat you?" There was a rumble of explosions in my ears, like thunder bombing around me.
Ye Feng was shocked and turned pale. He raised his head and looked around. He saw that many disciples around him had normal expressions and seemed not to have received any disturbance.
"Transmitting sounds into secrets is a method that only immortal cultivators can use. I didn't expect that even warriors in this world can use it!" Ye Feng did not dare to neglect and quickly strode into the Treasure Pavilion compound.
However, the old man was not in the small room next to the Treasure Pavilion where Ning Yuan Pills were distributed. Behind the original incense table, the person responsible for receiving the disciples was replaced by a fat man with a round face.
The fat man lazily distributed the elixirs in his hands. When Ye Feng appeared, his expression changed slightly. A strange light flashed in his eyes that had been narrowed to a slit. He pointed his right hand to the side and said, "You can enter directly." Treasure Pavilion, the old man is in the wing on the right side of the pavilion!"
Ye Feng nodded and subconsciously checked the other party's cultivation level, but was surprised to find that the other party's cultivation level was not within the range that could be checked.
"This fat man doesn't seem to be amazing in appearance, but in fact he has a good cultivation level and has reached the Yuanwu realm!" Ye Feng was secretly shocked, but he quickly put this matter aside and walked straight to the direction pointed by the fat man. .
"This kid is interesting." The fat man chuckled, resumed his previous lazy posture, and continued the work at hand boredly.
Ye Feng left the hut and entered the treasure hall, and soon found the wing pointed by the fat man.
The door was closed tightly, and Ye Feng was about to raise his hand to knock on the door, but the door suddenly opened as if sensing his presence.
Ye Feng looked up and found that the furnishings in the house were simple. An ink painting hung on the wall opposite the door. The picture was abstract, but it gave people a very strange feeling. At first glance, it could be seen that a dragon and a tiger were fighting each other. , but if you look closely, you can only see two thick lines of ink. Below the painting is a Taishi chair. An old man with a white beard is lying flat on the chair, seeming to be asleep and awake.
"Did you see anything?" The old man never opened his eyes, but he seemed to know that Ye Feng was looking at the picture of dragon and tiger.
"This disciple is stupid. At first glance, it looks like a dragon and a tiger are fighting each other, but upon closer inspection, it's hard to tell." Ye Feng told the truth.
"It is not easy to be able to tell that there is a dragon and a tiger. Your mental power is much higher than that of ordinary people. No wonder you have extraordinary comprehension. You can practice the Crazy Thunder Step and the Three Thunder Styles that even Yuanwu realm warriors cannot easily master to your current level. "The old man raised his eyelids slightly, glanced at Ye Feng, and then continued to close his eyes and rest.
"It turns out that it was this reason that made my uncle laugh." Ye Feng was shocked. Unexpectedly, with just a painting, the old man could see that his mental power was different from ordinary people.
"I have been paying attention to you for a long time. You have a broken vein and are born unable to practice, but you refuse to accept your fate and have been practicing hard in secret. Even if it were me, I would not have the resilience and concentration like you! Fortunately, you are a blessing in disguise. , after being injured by that child Ruoxue, he actually connected the broken pulse, it’s considered God’s mercy, don’t let this opportunity go!”
"Disciple must obey the teachings and never dare to belittle oneself and waste this great opportunity." The scene of Ning Ruoxue shocking himself to death flashed through Ye Feng's mind. He was furious in his heart, but he did not dare to show it in front of the white-bearded old man.
"I have today's cultivation level. I have nothing to do with Ning Ruoxue. This old man called me over. Could it be that he thought that the reason why I was able to connect the broken pulse was because Ning Ruoxue's Yuan force field was shocked. Do you want to intercede with me and ask me to let that girl go?" Ye Feng smiled secretly and did not explain.
The old man chuckled lightly, as if he had read through Ye Feng's thoughts, and said: "You and Ning Ruoxue are both rare talents for our Dragon and Tiger Sect. The Dragon and Tiger Sect is currently experiencing constant internal disputes, and the younger generation's talents are withering, and their strength is far less than before. You see each other as competitors, and I am naturally happy to hear about it. After all, this is also a motivation for cultivation, but I only allow you to compete openly, and I will never allow you to hurt each other secretly."
"Yes!" Ye Feng nodded in agreement. He was a manly man and did not bother to do some shady things.
"Okay, you have been practicing hard in recent days, and your cultivation has improved rapidly. You have become a role model for my younger generation. I also know that you have the intention to practice more combat skills, but you should not be greedy for too many combat skills, otherwise it will affect your practice, so I give this to you This is a high-grade yellow-grade book called "Chasing the Wind Step". Once you master the "Zhu Feng Step", it will be extremely agile and can help you easily escape some irresistible dangers and make up for your shortcomings in the "Thunder Step."
"Free gift, no contribution points required!" Does he know the price of the yellow-level high-grade exercises? Although he has hunted countless monsters and has strong capital, and can redeem a large number of contribution points, just a copy of the yellow-level top-grade exercises is expensive. It's not cheap, and it will cost at least half of his contribution points. In this way, he will not have enough contribution points to exchange for the Juyuan Dan and the long-coveted blood-patterned steel.
He originally planned to appropriately reduce the number of Yuan Ju Dan and choose a yellow-level mid-level physical combat skill. Unexpectedly, the old man actually gave it to him directly, so he was naturally overjoyed.
"Thank you, great uncle! Thank you so much, great uncle!" Ye Feng thanked him repeatedly and showed great respect to the old man.
"No need to be polite, go ahead. From now on, you are my direct disciple, Bai Chengfeng. Just call me Master. No one in this outer sect dares to cause trouble for you, but don't just leave it like this." Relax your vigilance, especially when you enter the Yuanwu Realm and become an inner disciple, you will face real challenges. By then, even I dare not say that I can completely protect you, and I can only rely on you for the rest. On your own!"
"In the inner sect, even my uncle can't protect me?" Ye Feng was horrified and looked at the old man in disbelief. He had seen some of the old man's cultivation.
"The so-called Dragon Tiger Sect means the struggle between dragon and tiger. The complexity within the sect is beyond your imagination. The reason why I let Ning Ruoxue hide her cultivation and never step into the inner sect is because I am worried about this. If you hadn't broken through that day and asked outsiders to discover Ruoxue's true cultivation in the Yuanwu Realm, I'm afraid I would have kept her hidden for a while. But now that things have happened, I'm afraid it's all destined to wait until you really enter the inner gate. , I'm afraid I have to be forced to join forces with Ruoxue." Bai Chengfeng sighed, glanced at Ye Feng tiredly, and said slowly.
"Join forces with her?" Ye Feng smiled bitterly. If the inner sect was so complicated, it would actually force him to join forces with the enemy who killed him.
"When you reach the Yuanwu Realm and enter the inner sect, you will naturally know. I am tired today. You go to Xiang An to find your unsatisfactory senior brother. After understanding some general conditions of the sect, you can go back to practice by yourself. !" Bai Chengfeng waved his hand, signaling Ye Feng to leave.
Ye Feng did not dare to neglect, and after bowing and bowing, he slowly exited the side room.
Closing the door lightly, Ye Feng thought thoughtfully. This is how he became the old man's direct disciple, and his seniority was not low.
Ye Feng had never heard of such a simple apprenticeship ceremony.
"What a strange old man!" Ye Feng shook his head and walked straight out of the treasure pavilion.
As soon as they left the Treasure Pavilion, the "senior brother" whom Bai Chengfeng called him came up to him and murmured unabashedly: "How about Junior Brother Ye, has Old Man Bai accepted you as his direct disciple?"
Ye Feng was startled. He didn't expect that the senior brother mentioned by the old man would actually leave the entire outer sect's disciples and come to greet him in person. He quickly raised his hands and saluted: "My lord Ye Feng, from now on I will be the direct disciple of Master Bai. Please also invite me." Please take good care of me, Senior Brother!”
"It's easy to talk about. The other old men are all disciples in groups. Only the old man in our family has a weird nature. He has been there for so many years, and there are only three of you including you. Let's not talk about that among our senior brothers. My name is Yang Han, you can just call me Brother Yang from now on. Let me tell you briefly about our sect."
Having said this, Yang Han briefly introduced the current situation of the master's sect to Ye Feng.
In the Dragon and Tiger Sect, all disciples can be called sect disciples, and sect disciples are divided into handyman disciples, outer sect disciples, inner sect disciples, martial arts disciples, and direct disciples.
Not to mention the handyman disciples, the outer sect, inner sect, and martial arts disciples are divided according to their cultivation level and sect assessment. However, direct disciples do not conflict with these three types of disciples. As long as a certain disciple is selected by the master sect, If the senior elders like him, he can be accepted as his direct disciple.
When direct disciples encounter difficulties in practice, they can get guidance from their master. In addition to the public sect tasks, there are also exclusive master tasks to accept. Except for the first time, direct disciples have no additional benefits. , to obtain welfare, you still have to rely on your own strength to fight for it.
For example, although Ye Feng is now Bai Chengfeng's direct disciple, because he is still in the outer sect, like other outer sect disciples, he can only live in Crouching Tiger Garden and receive a Yuan Ning Dan every three months.
Of course, the status of a direct disciple is not comparable to that of other disciples. Not to mention having a backer in the sect, if the master is particularly optimistic, it is easy to get private rewards such as pills and combat skills.
Before Ye Feng, Bai Chengfeng had only accepted two disciples. Yang Han ranked first and was the eldest disciple of the entire sect. The second disciple was Ning Ruoxue. Not only did he enter the inner sect some time ago, but he was also watched by Lieyan Hall. , directly became a martial arts disciple, and his status was far beyond that of ordinary disciples.
After bidding farewell to Yang Han, Ye Feng went directly to the Xinggong Hall and exchanged a large amount of Demonic Yuan Dan for contribution points. Then he rushed to the Treasure Pavilion again and found that the middle-aged man who was responsible for managing the Treasure Pavilion was not there. It was another strange man.
Just to avoid some trouble of explanation, after Ye Feng returned two yellow-level high-grade combat skills, with the help of Senior Brother Yang, he exchanged all the needed items without queuing.
With the blood-patterned steel, a hundred Yuan Condensing Pills, and the yellow-grade high-grade movement and combat technique "Zhu Feng Step", Ye Feng gained far more than he had expected. Of course, his contribution points were also fully used. .
